I usually don't grow in the summer due to the heat and I'm struggling to get my ass in gear for this winter. I usually have about 4 varieties I grow, blue oysters, pinks, lion's mane and pioppinos.

Definitely the pioppino (sometimes they're called black poplar mushrooms), they have a really nice meaty flavour and firm texture. I find them a little harder to grow than the others. I also enjoy the lions mane quite a bit. I'm really not a huge fan of oysters but my partner and family like them a lot. Oysters have too much gill for me and I just don't like the texture. I do make a roasted oyster seasoning though and that's really good.

I'm not into a really gilly mushroom, either. I'd like to try the pioppinos, though. Thanks for the description, because that really sounds like something I'd like.
